WEST DES MOINES, Iowa, Jan. 14, 2025 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Community Educators, a provider of high-quality Continuing Education courses to insurance professional especially in Iowa and Nebraska is proud to announce its new strategic partnership with the Mark Kollar Consulting Group (MKCG). The collaboration will help Community Educators expand its curriculum and course offerings and tailor the brand's unique educational offering to more insurance professionals nationwide. MKCG brings extensive experience in developing and marketing novel insurance coverages and technology and will be spearheading efforts to broaden Community Educators market presence.
Almost all insurance professionals are required to complete several hours of continuing education courses to maintain their licenses. However, CE has largely been commoditized and the salient value for both the provider and consumer is "getting it over with." Community Educators niche, rather is to offer thoughtful, relevant course material, delivered by seasoned industry professionals to students who want to learn and improve their knowledge base and skills. The two new courses that will be offered will be a policy analysis of Sexual Abuse and Molestation coverage and a policy analysis of Supplemental Disaster Insurance and parametric policies.
"Back in the day, we pioneered stand-alone Employment Practices Liability Insurance," said Mark Kollar, Founder of MKCG. "We found that agents and brokers would not sell any product that they didn't thoroughly understand. We, and our competitors, conducted hundreds of seminars all over the country that ultimately helped to establish EPLI as a product category. There's an adage in advertising that holds that the first thing advertising does is sell the product in general. Images of happy people driving establish that car ownership is a brand thing. Then your job is to deliver the message that my brand of vehicle is better than any other brand. Community Educators is serious about empowering agents and brokers across the nation to understand and offer new or complicated coverages their clients need."
"We are thrilled to add Mark Kollar to our faculty and to partner with MKCG to help us bring our educational services in front of new audiences as well as our traditional customer base of insurance professionals in Iowa and Nebraska," said Erin Reese, co-owner and Instructor of Community Educators. "We are impressed with Mark's deep background in commercial insurance products and solutions and are thrilled with the knowledge and insights he will bring to the team at Community Educators."
